What is the brewing process of Maotai-flavor wine?

1, Dragon Boat Festival music production

Every year after the Dragon Boat Festival, we begin to make sake medicine. Daqu medicine takes wheat as raw material. First, the wheat is crushed, mixed with water and "mother song" and put in a wooden box. The worker stood in the box and kept stomping on it.

The koji-making time is in summer, and the temperature in the koji-making workshop is often as high as 40 degrees Celsius. High temperature is beneficial to the growth of microorganisms. When these microorganisms are mixed into koji, they will secrete a lot of enzymes, which can accelerate the conversion of starch and protein into sugar.

2. Chongyang Xiasha

"Chongyang Xiasha" is the key step in the production of Maotai-flavor liquor. The so-called "sand" refers to red sorghum (also known as red sorghum) Because the local sorghum in Maotai Town is small and red, it is called "sand". "Xiasha" refers to the release of sorghum, the main component of wine making.

Chishui River becomes turbid and reddish every Dragon Boat Festival, and it is clear and transparent until the Double Ninth Festival of that year. As the saying goes, water is the soul of wine. Turbid river water can't be used to make wine. This is the secret of "Chongyang Xiasha".

Step 3 mix

Blending has always been a mysterious process in the brewing process. Master Goujiu mixed different rounds of wine with his own taste, looking for the balance and layering between tastes. Blending includes: vegetable hook, blending hook and tasting hook.

4. Condiments

After blending, the final task is "seasoning", and "flavoring wine" should be added when seasoning. The production of flavoring wine is produced by wineries with special technology, which is the core secret of every winery. Seasoning wine has a special taste, only a small amount is added at a time.
